Chapter 354: I blocked you, but you still sent a notification?
Chapter 354: I blocked you, but you still sent a notification?
Jiang Baige scanned the name of the person who sent the message and frowned slightly. She was a little annoyed that she should not only block his Moments permissions, but also block him completely.
But she is no longer the young and energetic girl in her early twenties. She has become more gentle and always likes to leave some room for maneuver when doing things.
As a result, this leeway is like the appendix in the human body. It is fine when nothing happens, but if something goes wrong you have to have surgery for it.
Jiang Baige was unwilling to take the blame for Lu Tian.
Lu Tian didn't wait for her reply and sent another message: [So you blocked me? ]
It’s the same as the previous one, except that “senior sister” was changed to “so”.
They totally ignore the fact that this is the most irritating commuting time for ordinary workers - if it is commuting after get off work, there is still some hope.
After all, he had never worked a day since graduation, and even when he was picking his feet at home, someone was planning his future.
Just because of that gender, that face.
It really feels unfair.
Jiang Baige felt even more upset. The inspiration for the novel that she had just wanted to record had long since disappeared.
She turned off the phone screen irritably and held it in her hand.
The screen lit up again. It was another new message, but she had set up privacy protection, so the content could not be seen on the lock screen. She turned the phone over and held it, and the world suddenly became quiet - unless she was at work, her phone was always in silent mode.
This is a habit I developed in my previous life when I lived alone at home and wrote full-time.
At first I felt that the world was too quiet, but over time I was cured of the anxiety that caused me to panic when I heard my phone vibrate or ring at work.
Living my life over again, I have developed this habit.
Of course, the confidence comes from having money.
Honestly speaking, if buying a house did not require a residence permit and a provident fund loan, she would not starve to death by writing full-time even if she did not take this class.
Thinking of this, Jiang Baige's depressed mood improved a little: money always has this kind of inspiring power.
So she put Lu Tian's bad mood behind her, and when it was almost time for lunch, a colleague came over and asked her to send him a file. Jiang Baige remembered that she had saved a copy of the file in WeChat, so she opened her phone again and accidentally saw Lu Tian's message.
I set the Do Not Disturb mode, so I didn't notice that he sent a series of messages.
A cliché popped into my mind: Who are the ones dating these persistent men?
Although Jiang Baige likes handsome guys, her enthusiasm only lasts for three minutes. When the enthusiasm wears off, she no longer feels that the handsome guys are so clingy, but just feels annoyed.
She sent the file to her colleague, and Su Su called her to have dinner. She typed a reply on the computer: [I have added many colleagues at work to this account, so I deleted the content I posted before and will not post again in the future. ]
I didn't tell the truth, for the same reason as I didn't block him. I was influenced by the bad nature of adults - or even middle-aged people - to do things to the extreme without going far enough.
No wonder young people hate middle-aged people.
This procrastination sometimes even made her feel unhappy, but she just couldn't change it.
After receiving her message, Lu Tian stopped making a fuss. He sent her a cute expression and stopped pestering her. Jiang Baige glanced at her phone, didn't reply, exited the interface, and let the screen go out.
Su Su asked with a smile: "Boyfriend?"
"What?" Jiang Baige's mouth twitched.
"Your phone has been ringing all morning... but weren't you called to a meeting by your boss early in the morning? A few of us were bored in the office, and we heard the buzzing sound from time to time. We couldn't help but wonder if you had a fight with your boyfriend, which is why he kept trying to find you."
Jiang Baige smiled and said, "I've been looking for him all morning... How big of a mistake must he have made? Stop making blind guesses."
She did not deny the gossip, because if she denied it, she would have to tell the truth.
And the truth is, her book is finally out.
Dugu He sent her all kinds of information, pictures, marketing documents, and some forms that she needed to fill out...
There were files, texts, and images. Not only did the number exceed Lu Tian's, but the time also exceeded his. He had to "manually pin" the chat box to the top.
Normally Jiang Baige would log into the computer version of WeChat when she arrived at work, but because today was a remote meeting and her laptop was connected to the projector, she naturally had to exit WeChat.
Otherwise, how will the bosses handle the situation if they see their employees complaining about them, or if their employees’ “side jobs” get bigger and bigger?
Jiang Baige came back from a meeting upstairs and was shocked to see the string of messages on her phone. She immediately sat down to reply without even having time to get some water, let alone notice the inquiring looks of her colleagues.
Little did she know that her anxiety, in the eyes of those people, turned into "it must be a message from her boyfriend, that's why she replied so anxiously", which became the evidence that the messages were indeed from her boyfriend.
She couldn't tell the truth, so she had to accept the wrong assumptions.
Jiang Baige: Sometimes a career-obsessed person feels helpless when he is among a group of gossipers...
Before they finished their meal, their cell phones started vibrating again.
Jiang Baige: Well, sometimes when you meet a workaholic who is more passionate about his career than you are, you feel helpless...
What’s even more helpless is opening your phone and responding to another workaholic’s side job message under the eager and expectant gaze of a gossip maniac…
But this time, it was not Dugu He who "harassed" her.
But it was someone she really didn't want to contact again: Lao Ge.
Lao Ge first sent a script file over, and then said: [Teacher Jiang, this is the new script our screenwriter has revised, can you take a look at it? ]
Jiang Baige did not accept the document, but directly replied: [Boss Ge, didn’t we agree on this last time? After the discussion, I went back and thought about it. I really don’t understand this short play. If I accidentally say something wrong and ruin the project, I can’t afford to pay for it even if I sell a few more novels. Let’s just forget it.]
The reason I said “last time” is because this is not the first time this has happened.
At first Jiang Baige didn't want to be so direct and was more tactful, but seeing that Lao Ge was being so arrogant, she finally couldn't stand it anymore and said directly that she had a job and it was not convenient for her to participate.
Who knew that Old Ge... was also a dog-skin plaster.
Jiang Baige almost started to wonder if this kind of begging was engraved in the Y chromosome, otherwise why would all men be the same?
As expected, Lao Ge seemed not to understand what she was saying and continued to persuade her: [Just take a look first and I will give you some guidance.]
Jiang Baige refused to give in: [Mr. Ge, you are very experienced, and it is enough to have you in charge.]
She thought, you didn't even pay for the travel expenses to the last seminar, and you still want me to show you the script? This is no longer cheap labor, it's free!
At this time, Su Su finished her meal and whispered to Jiang Baige: "Shall we leave?"
"go!"
Jiang Baige picked up the plate and turned her phone to silent mode again.
